The whole golf is broken down in panels in primers because it was going to get blocked and painted.

I was driving the car around but it isn't tuned right I'm told. It's got a rover manual injection pump,stock injectors and a new era manual turbo which I can't remember the name. Alh TDI engine and it's got a hydrolic shift pedal kit,ctn mk3 tranny I believe for best mileage.

There is also a $1000 rad/ intercooler setup upfront. Only thing I remember not finishing is a safe way to make intake tube forward of airbox to have access to flowing air and not picking up water?

The car is stuck at family's and I'm in no shape to deal with it and would live if somebody could take the whole setup!

No windshield. The interior and dash was there now dirty I assume. Brand new covered headliner. Golf is 4 doors,no sunroof. It did have good tires at time but car has sat years in shop.

I had brand new amps installed with deck,components up front, and dual 12" woofers in the back

Just let me know if you are headed out here.  I could arrange my time and travels perhaps to meet up.
